What’s the best rotor and brake pads to buy?
OEM rotors and pads are not terrible price wise though if you want to play it safe.

I like the OEM pads in Gen2 CR-Vs, but the rotors are way overpriced IMO.
When to check front rotor and brake pads?
Front rotor issues will cause a shimmy in the steering wheel when you stop; rear rotors will cause pulsating but not in the steering. The pads should also be checked to make sure they are not binding (stuck) in their holders. You should also check for a binding caliper: Drive 2 – 3 miles from cold…then stop and feel the centers of the wheels.
